Tears clouded my eyes as I stood in our washing room, holding Brett’s jeans and full of burn holes.
Tired and defeated, I   31   to the floor. The clothes were just one more thing Brett had 32  . He often got almost everything in the house out of    33  . Many windows in our house needed repair due to his breaking   34  to steal money when he chose to live on the street. Yet none of this could compare to the emotional   35    Brett had done to our once quiet home.
Brett came to live with us when he was 12 years old. During the next few years I had dealt with Brett a   36  as possible, but inside I was shouting. “I don’t want him in my house another day, Lord! I just can’t   37  him!” Having wiped my tears, I continued   38  him as before.
When Brett was nearly 18, he landed again in Juvenile Hall(少管所). After that, my husband and I had to send Brett to a boarding school for helping   39  teens.
At the   40  ceremony, each graduate held a white rose to give to the person who had  41  the most to him or her. Brett spoke   42  to his parents and then spoke to me, “You did so much. You were always there, no matter   43  . My mom and dad, I was their kid. But you,  44   troubled enough by me, always   45  me such love. And I want you to know I love you for it.”
  46  , I stood as Brett placed the white rose in my hand and hugged me   47  .
At that moment, tears   48  in my eyes again, this time not for disappointment but for   49 . Although I had struggled with silent   50  toward my stepson, Brett had seen only my actions. Love is action. We may not always have positive feelings about certain people in our lives, but we can love them.

When my daughter, Sophie, was admitted to a college we were very happy, but a little worried about becoming empty nesters. I knew I had to do something to help myself adapt, starting with the summer before she left.
Sophie had a pack of colorful T-shirts. I knew she wouldn’t wear them any more, so I decided to make a quilt out of them for her bed at college. It focused my energy, and also let me relive some memories. I tried to work on the quilt when Sophie wasn’t at home----which turned out to be often. She was very busy with her friends. Even when she was around, her door was shut more than usual. I felt a bit hurt. After all, we didn’t have much time together before she went to college, I was already missing her, and she hadn’t ever left yet.
When we arrived at the college, a wave of emotion flooded me. I tried to hold it back, but Sophie saw it in my face. She took a big red book from her bag. “I made this for you, Mom,” she said. Then I knew why she had been staying behind a closed door that summer. It was an album of photographs documenting the life of our family over the last 17 years.
I broke into tears. Some of it was sadness at having to let her go, but some of it was joy. I knew that our connection was more powerful than ever, and that we’d always be connected by the strongest of threads, the love that went into every stitch of her quilt and every photo of my album.
In Sophie’s dormitory I unfolded the quilt on her bed. For a moment she was speechless. Then she threw her arms around me. “Mom, I love you,” she said. One of her new friends was calling her outside. Sophie turned, and I let her go.

Scott and his companions were terribly disappointed. When they got to the South Pole, they found the Norwegianshad  16  them in the race to be the first ever to reach it. After  17   the British flag at the Pole, they took a photograph of themselves  18  they started the 950-mile journey back.
The journey was unexpectedly  19   and the joy and excitement about the Pole had gone out of them. The sun hardly  20 . The snow storms always made it impossible to sight the stones they had  21    to mark their way home. To make things  22   , Evans, whom they had all thought of  23  the strongest of the five, fell badly into a deep hole in the ice. Having  24   along for several days, he suddenly fell down and died.
The four who were  25   pushed on at the best speed they could  26  . Captain Oates had been suffering for some time from his  27  feet; at night his feet swelled(肿胀) so large that he could  28    put his boots on the next morning, and he walked bravely although he was in great  29   . He knew his slowness was making it less likely that 30     could save themselves. He asked them to leave him behind in his sleeping-bag, but they refused, and helped him  31   a few more miles, until it was time to put up the  32   for another night.
The following morning, 33   the other three were still in their sleeping-bags, he said. “I am just going outside and may be 34  some time.” He was never seen again. He had walked out  35   into the snow storm, hoping that his death would help his companions.

I stared out of the window, remembering 26 I grew up, always wanting to hear a word of 27 from her, but getting only the rule and 28 I could never live up to (做到). I remembered the years when she 29 me to get up at six every morning and cook breakfast for the family before leaving for school. Least of all, I remembered the times she’d 30 me to other girls who were as old as me and found me useless.
“Nothing was ever 31 enough for my mother,’’ continued my mother, “ but now I know she did 32 me, even if she never said so. I told you this just for a 33. Yes, I love all my children, but you are my first child, the first in everything to me. I have been very strict and hard on you, but I 34 you in the only way I knew. I am 35 proud of you.”
